Excerpts from Royal Olympic's Website about the Olympia Countess
The atmosphere onboard the Olympia Countess is casual and relaxed, attracting an international mix of passengers. It offers 7-day cruises through the Greek Isles with a sampling of the delights of Istanbul. Sail through time from the Minoan Palace of Knossos on Crete to the medieval city of the crusaders on Rhodes. Climb to the cliff-top village of Thera on Santorini or sip an ouzo at sunset in a seaside café in Mykonos.
